Great News,

OFFICIAL] (pyxis) LineageOS 19.1 - Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite​

LineageOS Changelog 19.1 Nightlies Mi 9 Lite pyxis

@ceracz thank you for the hard work you have done to make it possible!

 

[ceracz]

Hey @ceracz just wondering if you are still active on XDA?

I'm sorry for inactivity here because I mainly communicate on Telegram where are many Pyxis users. But I know that many people visit XDA first when they are looking for the custom ROMs for their devices.
Some news:
- I'm planning to release several los18.1 builds but only with security fixes
- During last few days Pyxis was accepted as officially supported device by LineageOS org and it's development will continue with LineageOS 19.1 and I assume LineageOS 20 will be supported as well

What wonderful news! It would be nice if it came to this. Thank you @ceracz for the information, the sign of life and the good work done so far!

Amazing news about LOS being official! I'll keep watching the Pyxis group on Telegram too in that case also wanted to ask if you recommend people install your LOS 19.1 RC from Telegram or wait for the first release on https://download.lineageos.org/ ? Also wanted to check if either builds have your MIUI Camera module for Pyxis in the rom (https://github.com/ivecera/miuicamera_pyxis/releases)

A really apreciate the effort you spent in this device.
A lot of people do not use Whatsapp and Telegram for several reasons, that's why they are here at XDA.
Will there be the option to install the MIUI cam, as you did in LOS18.1? I mean it did work quite flawless and i have no clue, if there is a MIUI Cam package available.
Hope to see you back soon on XDA.

I joined the telegram pyxis group and lots of activity there!
The official Lineage release is out here.
New stuff to be integrated in the next build is here.
No MIUI cam for LOS 19.1 as of yet but I'm using a really good gcam on the offical LOS 19.1 build.
@ceracz has also started releasing unoffical LOS 19.1 builds with the fixes/new stuff before it builds on Lineage.
I recommend you get on the telegram channel for more updates/info (good FOSS telegram client I'm using : here).

Hello,

I can't flash the lineage file.
I installed the correct MIUI version in twrp but when I try to install lineage it says assert failed: update_dynamic partitions ( package_extract_file("dynamic_partitions_op_list"
Updater ended with error 1

what can I do to solve this?

Thanks for your advice.

Hi!

I just had the same problem yesterday, I fixed it using Lineage Recovery instead of TWRP. Let me know if that doesn't work.

I'm trying to use the gcam that you linked, but it keeps crashing. Could you explain which one and how did you install it?


Thanks in advance!

@Benjamin1989 you should have read the instructions if you wanna use TWRP then @ceracz has made a dynamic twrp that can be used to install LOS, Gapps, magisk etc BUT you still have to fastboot the super_empty.img from a computer (make sure your adb and fastboot commands are up to date. Once that is done if you have the files on an SD card in the phone you can install the usual way. The 'official' instructions he gave are :
LOS Flash procedure using TWRP
Clean flash:
1. Enter fastboot
2. Flash twrp recovery fastboot flash recovery recovery-3.6.2_12-pyxis-dynamic.img
3. Reboot to recovery (press volume-up and type fastboot reboot)
4. DON'T enter password/gesture/pin (otherwise step 5 will fail)
5. Format data with yes
6. Reboot -> Bootloader
7. Flash super_empty fastboot wipe-super super_empty.img
8. Reboot to recovery (press volume-up and type fastboot reboot)
9. Copy LOS ROM, Gapps etc. to device by adb push
10. Flash LOS zip
11. Reboot to recovery (mandatory)
12. Flash Gapps and other zips
13. Reboot to system

For step 12 I highly recommend flashing the safety-net-strict-addon.zip if you are using banking apps (I did it even though I had Magisk with Zygisk and deny list and hid the app, with Universal SafetyNet Fix and MagiskHide Props Config 1 app kept detecting root but after flashing the safety-net-strict-addon.zip file all good I used MindTheGapps-12.1.0-arm64-20220605_112439.zip and everything is working great.

I just installed the APK and then flashed the pyxis-buffer-r.zip in Magisk BEFORE opening the app

Flashing the strict addon should be enough if you don't need root access.
